This is one of the carriage paths that carry you from Hulls Cove throughout Acadia National Park
. There are over 50 miles of these roads in the park which do not allow motor vehicles. It's only you, your shoes, your bike, or your horse. And your dog, of course!

This is a beaver lodge on Witch Hole Pond, about a mile and a half from Great Haven. A large variety of wildlife, from song birds to birds of prey (peregrine falcons and bald eagles), to deer and moose, co-exist with us and make the Island their home.

Acadia National Park

Located on the rugged coast of Maine, Acadia National Park encompasses over 47,000 acres of granite-domed mountains, woodlands, lakes and ponds, and ocean shoreline.

Acadia was the first national park established east of the Mississippi. There are over 120 miles of hiking trails in Acadia National Park.

Between 1915 and 1933 John D Rockefeller, Jr. financed the building of 57 miles of carriage roads. Vehicles are not allowed on these roads. They are enjoyed by hikers, bikers, joggers, carraiges, horseback riders, cross country skiers, showshoers, a few are open to snowmobiles.

Ocean drive is a 27 mile scenic drive through the park encompassing Sand Beach, Great Head, Thunder Hole, Otter Cliffs and ending at the Jordan Pond House. You can drive to the top of Cadillac Mountain where it is said you see the first rays of the sun in the continental United States. A great place to watch the sunrise or the sunset.
